i know artists are putting out rebirth albums all the literal time lol idk though, finding out how upset some fans were at gerard for putting out such an artistically different album a year after my chem broke up because they saw it as a betrayal/selling out/deemed him fake etc just got me thinkin

gerard's debut (and so far, only) solo album "hesitant alien" came out september 29th, 2014; many fans felt betrayed and put off by the sonic/aesthetic/thematic departure from the gerard they knew taylor released her own full pop re-brand/"rebirth" named for her birth year on october 27, 2014

if you're too embarrassed to resist a fake dictator, i'm not sure how you plan on resisting a real one. caring is cringe. the show that's a satire on political authoritarianism took away your right to democracy? and you're not even a little suspect that it was on purpose?

i've wondered before if maybe the end of the first american leg of the tour could have acted as the beginning (1989 being the birth of taylor swift) or if there was some point that was rounded partway through the legs of the sets that looped it back to the beginning (like "begin again" being played)

always finding myself on the side of a fandom that errs on the side of an artist's storytelling ability being greater than what their fans estimate... it's a lonely and frustrating place to be when you just wanna yap on the internet about your thoughts

ew i hate putting a lot of effort into something only to have it disregarded despite no proof to the contrary aside from word of mouth from people who don't (and can't) know what they don't know. but what else is new?

i think the lore is mostly just "new jersey" but they actually did an episode for jack's podcast a few years ago where they mumble a lot (mostly gerard) and there are awkward silent stretches, it's a joy takethesadnessoutofsaturdaynight.com part 2!

i have ZERO doubt that some sort of fan-led resistance is what they want. gerard is an ambitious enough storyteller to dream something like this up and have faith that the audience will UNDERSTAND and CARE. just like taylor!

and just fully change everything in a moment because of a fan project, but it is just fascinating to see how many people are saying things like it would be disrespectful? or pointless? or that the band would be alarmed by it? as if there aren't eyes in fan spaces knowing what's happening there

i will watch this!! and wow how EVER did you know it was MCR ๐Ÿคช... i just think it's very funny to see people saying that it's pointless because the show has a script, as if it isn't actively changing every night. like nobody is so dumb to think that they're gonna upend the ENTIRE show +

it's actually SO fun to know with certainty that taylor has read and made an effort to GET every word of this song and probably most fob songs

more context: the band has recently made contact with fans through bracelets thrown from the stage. you don't know this because you don't go in fan spaces where you would learn this. someone hands you a RESIST sign. are you distressed by this because you consider this a spoiler?

ok got a question. you're going to a concert, the concept of the show is that the band you're seeing is living under a dictatorship and the show is a satire on authoritarianism. as a fan project, some fans decide to make "resist" signs for the show to hand out. is this a spoiler?

is this a ??? meme
